Grapes

Growing grapes and making wine have been part of Tuntland Farms for 20 years. The fourth generation farm operation celebrated the 20th anniversary of Waterman Winery & Vineyards recently with a two-day open house.

Before the COVID pandemic, it was business as usual for most wineries in Indiana. There was a bigger focus on entertainment, with many wineries offering concerts, private tastings, tours and other events.

The Indiana Winery and Vineyard Association was featured during an Indiana Farm Bureau lunch and learn webinar.

The most important weather conditions for grapes are the last four weeks before harvest.
